A few weeks ago my Inspiration Monday post was about the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta and in my rush to post I neglected to process more than one image. Today, I thought I would post some of the images from the day I visited the field with my family. I am not terribly happy with what I managed to accomplish photographically this year but upon review there a few that I like. The upside, however, is that I am motivated by what I remember of the day and by the images many of my friends managed to create from this year’s Fiesta. I hope you enjoy these few images:
I always enjoyed getting up before light, sharing the emotional rush of the first lift-off with the masses, and the watching how many ways people can smile. Thanks for bringing that back for me.
Thanks Robert! I always do love the festive feel of the Fiesta and the anticipation as the balloons begin to all lift off. Very unique. Very fun!
Oh, and you’ve given me an idea for a project: Balloon Fiesta Faces: capture the thrill on the faces of the spectators.
Cheers,
Brian
Thinking like that shows an eeprxt at work
